21&Co Pre-School Speech & Language classes

21 & Co is a registered charity run by parents, offering help and support to children with Down syndrome and their families in South West London, Surrey and surrounding areas.

One of our most important services are our Communication groups for our preschool children. These are run on Wednesday and Friday mornings at the Langdon Down Centre in Teddington and cover the ages of 1- 4 years. The children are grouped by age in no more than 5 per class and follow exercises designed by the respected speech and language therapy body 'Symbol UK', specifically for children with Down Syndrome. These early intervention methods cover early speech sounds, choosing, matching, letter and word recognition, speech clarity, categorising and sequencing. Parents or carers support their child throughout these classes. For more details please contact Tatty, tatty@21andco.org.uk
